Description
Textbook of Nephro-Endocrinology, Third Edition remains the definitive translational reference in the field of nephroendocrinology, investigating both the endocrine functions of the kidneys and how the kidney acts as a target for hormones from other organ systems. This new edition includes updates on the pathophysiology of inflammation, iron metabolism and erythropoiesis, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, the treatment of pre-eclampsia, and HIF-PHIs. The book offers researchers and clinicians expert analyses of nephroendocrine research and translation into the treatment of diseases such as anemia, chronic kidney disease (CKD), rickets, osteoporosis, and hypoparathyroidism.
Since the publication of the 2nd edition in 2009, many updates and new findings have emerged.

Dr. Singh has led groundbreaking studies in anemia of kidney disease, including the CHOIR study, which was published in the New England Journal of Medicine, and well as being a member of the steering committees for the TREAT and DRIVE studies. More recently, he has taken on the role of leading the ASCEND Clinical development program - a phase 3 program for the development of a novel propyl hydroxylase inhibitor Daprodustat. The trial is aiming to recruit 7500 patients in over countries. He currently leads the office of Postgraduate Medical Education at the Brigham and Women's Hospital, and in this capacity leads several HMS CME courses. He is the author of over 160 original contributions and review articles, as well as author/editor of 11 books in internal medicine and nephrology. Dr. Singh is a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians in London, and has an MBA from Boston University. Dr. Gordon H. Williams is an endocrinologist in Boston, Massachusetts and is affiliated with Brigham and Women's Hospital. He received his medical degree from Harvard Medical School and has been in practice for more than 30 years. He has published ~300 papers, is a well-respected and well-known expert, speaker and leader in the field of endocrinology.
